- This modality involves applying a small electric current to acupuncture needles once they are inserted, enhancing stimulation of the acupuncture points. It’s often used for pain relief and muscle spasms.
Cupping Therapy:
- Cupping uses glass or silicone cups placed on the skin to create suction, which can help improve circulation, relieve muscle tension, and reduce inflammation.
Moxibustion:
- Moxibustion involves burning a small, spongy herb called moxa (made from dried mugwort) near the skin’s surface to warm and invigorate the flow of Qi in the body and dispel certain pathogenic influences.
- acupuncture channels.
Gua Sha:
- This involves scraping a smooth-edged instrument across the skin where there is pain or inflammation to improve circulation. Gua Sha is often used to treat muscle pain and tension.
Acupressure:
- Similar to acupuncture but without needles, acupressure involves the application of pressure to specific points on the body. It’s used to relieve pain, reduce stress, and promote health and well-being.
Dietary and Lifestyle Advice:
- Based on the principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Chris often provides recommendations on diet and lifestyle to support treatment outcomes and promote overall health.

Each of these modalities can be used on its own or in conjunction with others, depending on the individual’s needs and the practitioner’s assessment. Chris tailors his approach to each patient, selecting the most appropriate techniques to address specific health concerns and promote optimal wellness.
